Chris Matthews and Edwards at UNC tomorrow...I'll be there!

[Infinite Hope]

I have two tickets. One is reserved for my friend who has finals during that time, but is hoping to get done in time to join me. It should be awesome! My first experience in the audience of a national show! I always hoped it would be Letterman, but Matthews will do. :P

1. Is tweety on or do they have a substitute

[LSparkle]

3. Yes -- his first show after being out sick for about a week

I'm jealous! I LOVE John Edwards ... and I'll be watching to see how he handles Tweety (which is usually pretty expertly).

4. Oh, really??? let's go to the videotape, shall we?

MATTHEWS: OK. I just want to get one thing straight so that we know how
you would have been different in president if you had been in office
the last four years as president. Would you have gone to Afghanistan?

EDWARDS: I would.

MATTHEWS: Would you have gone to Iraq?

EDWARDS: I would have gone to Iraq.

5. Oct. 13, Monday.....2003! I can forgive those who were wrong and had

the guts to criticize their own vote. Sure, it was when the climate was more convenient to do so; sure it'd have been best if they had the guts of my hero Wellstone from the beginning; but I'm focused on 2008 and Edwards is a good man with great populist ideals. He learned his lesson. :toast:

10. 2003? yeah, let's just look forward. Who cares how we got into this war?

New Forward looking!

7. Count, it's time for you to go outside and play.

Brought to you by the letter *ss.

8. LOL

:rofl:

13. Just another reason

Just another reason for me to dislike Edwards.

14. He may have been wrong on those answers, but he gave them directly

That's what I meant by dealing well with Tweety -- not tap-dancing around, but just coming right out and saying what he believed at the time. I can accept if somebody's wrong, as long as they can own up to it. Edwards has done a better job on facing up to Iraq War vote than almost anyone -- just admitting he was dead WRONG.

[ncrainbowgrrl]

6. Hey, I will see you there.

A friend just dropped off her ticket - she has an exam and can't go.

[Infinite Hope]

9. Cool, maybe we can gather DUers who are attending outside?
